Cassie isn’t here for Kanye West’s antics. After he tried to drag her into his mess. She clapped back in the simplest way possible by reposting a tweet from Playboi Carti that said, “Ye STFU.” In other words, she’s not about to let him play with her name.
This all comes after Cassie took a major stand in November 2023, when she sued Diddy for years of physical abuse. “After years in silence and darkness, I am finally ready to tell my story, and to speak up on behalf of myself and for the benefit of other women who face violence and abuse in their relationships,” she said in a statement. The lawsuit was settled in less than 24 hours, but the conversation about Diddy’s alleged abuse didn’t die down.
So for Kanye to try and bring Cassie into whatever he’s got going on? Yeah, she wasn’t having it. Instead of wasting time going back and forth, she hit him with that Carti quote and kept it pushing. It was short, direct, and straight to the point she’s not entertaining nonsense. Cassie’s focus is on healing, speaking her truth, and making sure other women in similar situations know they aren’t alone. She’s not about to get sidetracked by Kanye’s usual chaos. If he thought she was gonna sit quiet while he tried to play her, he definitely got the wrong one.

After filing multiple assault lawsuits against Diddy, Tony Buzbee has been forced to withdraw from representing the alleged victims.
As per TMZ the Houston, TX. attorney will not be able to proceed with many of the lawsuits he has filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs. Last month the mogul’s legal representation filed a motion that he does not have authorization to practice law in the Southern District of New York. This week he submitted paperwork formally removing himself from 15 sexual assault cases. “I made an error in judgment by failing to inform you that I was not admitted to the Southern District” the paperwork read.
Tony Buzbee says he plans to remain involved while his New York based counsel will move forward with the high profile cases. U.S. District Judge Ronnie Abrams has yet to approve the request as per the order she filed on Tuesday, Mar. 11 demanding he explain why he didn’t make it clear he is not approved to practice law in the district.
In an exclusive statement to TMZ he details the reasoning for the move to withdraw. “I personally withdrew, not my firm, from the few federal court cases we have on file until such time as my admission is cleared up” he says. “I’m still attorney in charge in all the New York state cases and intend to file cases very soon in Nevada and California.”
This is not the first time Tony Buzbee has been accused of errors with regards to his legal practice. Back in January JAY-Z’s team called out the attorney for missing several “factual inconsistencies” in his client’s story that she was sexually assaulted by JAY-Z and Diddy back in 2000.

Over the last few weeks, Kanye West has been on a wild one with his X posts and airing of grievances, but it seems like someone was blindsided by his antics as Diddy had no clue that Yeezy was recording what he thought was a private conversation between the two men.
After weeks of calling for the release of Diddy and even tweeting that Cassie ran some of the orgies that were credited to Diddy’s “freak offs,” Kanye West got on the horn with the disgraced music mogul. But unbeknownst to Diddy, Yeezy was recording their conversation and would later release the video for all to hear.
According to Page Six, the “Diddler” was under the impression that he and Kanye were having a man-to-man conversation from his jail cell from the Brooklyn Detention Center. Now that their phone call has been made public – by Kanye – the “Bad Boy For Life” rapper seems to feel violated as he had no intention on becoming a part of Kanye’s current drama filled life.
Page Six reports:
“Puff didn’t know it was being recorded [on video],” a source exclusively told The Post, adding that the Bad Boy Records founder “thought he was having a friend call him to check on his kids.”
The insider further explained that Combs feels like “collateral damage in the debacle over Ye’s new song,” which Kim Kardashian was against being released as it featured her oldest daughter with West, North.
“The beef is really with Kim,” they added, explained that it is “a matter of older influential Black men knowing these guys are kind of flying blindly.”
The insider also confirmed that “the call was real and not AI” after many netizens questioned its legitimacy.
It’s crazy how Kanye went on a rant about being betrayed by so many of his rap peers only to betray Diddy by posting their private phone call.
This comes on the heels of Kanye calling Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s kids “retarded,” accusing the Kardashian family of sex trafficking and proudly declaring himself a Nazi.
We’re not sure what Kanye’s endgame is with his 2025 online meltdown, but it’s gotten to the point where people are just accepting and ignoring his outlandish posts as each one seems to be darker and weirder with every passing day.
As for Diddy, he seems confident that he’ll be exonerated of the sex trafficking charges he’s currently facing. On the call, he told Kanye that she system is simply trying to “end us” and added “They can’t do it and they ain’t gonna do it. I’m going to beat this sh*t and get next to you.”
“When I get out there, man, I want to see you f–king tear down the stadiums,” Diddy said, according to Page Six. “I need to see you back on that stage, f–king actually rapping and f–king performing and everything. I be dreaming of that s–t.”
Kinda seems like both these men are living in a reality that we can’t see.
What do y’all think about Kanye West leaking his phone call with Diddy? Fair or foul? Let us know in the comments section below.

A video just hit the internet of a phone call between Kanye West and Diddy, who’s locked up right now, and the convo was interesting, to say the least
Diddy, still keeping his energy up despite being behind bars, told Ye straight up, “Man, you gotta start smiling again. Get back in that lab and cook up.” He made it clear that once he’s out, he’s hitting the ground running no time wasted, just straight to the music and living his best life. In the background, you could hear Diddy’s son, King Combs, in the room with Kanye, holding it down for his pops. “Stay solid, Dad. We got you,” he said, keeping the energy positive. Diddy, always about that mindset, reminded both Ye and Christian to keep their vibrations high. “Y’all still free. Don’t take that for granted,” he said, making sure they understood the blessing of being outside while he was in a different situation right now.
Before ending the call, Diddy made sure not to bring the mood down. “I ain’t tryna kill the vibe, man. Just keep cooking up,” he told Kanye before hanging up. The whole convo was the two fallen stars trying to pick each other up during a downtime.
Earlier this week, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were back at it. This time over their daughter North West’s name and brand. As North’s gotten older, she’s been vibing with music whenever she’s with Kanye, and it’s even starting to look like she might take it seriously maybe even turn it into a career. Kim ain’t having it and decided to step in shutting down anything that could potentially put North’s well-being at risk.
Ye, on the other hand, wants to give North the freedom to explore her talents and build her own brand. This has led to some serious tension between the two, with Kanye pushing for more control over North’s career and Kim doing everything she can to protect her from the pressures of fame. It’s clear they’re not seeing eye to eye on how to handle North’s future in the spotlight.

Not too long ago. Diddy and his legal team attempted to call out CNN for allegedly altering the video of him beating Cassie in a hotel hallway in 2016. The news network is now clapping back at the claim saying they don’t know what the heck he’s talking about.
According to TMZ, CNN has responded to the allegation that Diddy’s legal team lobbed at them in which they claimed that not only did CNN alter the now infamous video of Diddy beating and dragging Cassie down a hotel hallway, but that they destroyed the only copy of the video in the process. Needless to say, that’s a huge accusation to hurl at any news network; CNN has finally responded to the allegation.
Per TMZ:
A spokesperson for CNN tells TMZ … “CNN never altered the video and did not destroy the original copy of the footage, which was retained by the source. CNN aired the story about the video several months before Combs was arrested.”
We broke the story … Diddy’s defense team claimed Thursday in new court docs that CNN purchased the video showing Diddy attacking Cassie in the hallway of the InterContinental Hotel in L.A.
Diddy’s camp claims CNN took the only known copy of the hotel’s surveillance footage and uploaded it into a free editing software, altered the video and then destroyed the original footage.
But, CNN says Diddy’s lawyers have it all wrong.
At this point, it seems like Diddy’s team will do anything to repair his reputation before his trial starts in May, but with all these men and women coming out the woodworks with their own stories about “The Diddler” and his predatory ways, Diddy’s name is beyond salvageable.
On the flip side, there are rumors that Diddy is being treated like a celebrity behind bars by his fellow inmates, so there’s that. Heck, even crypto fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried says Diddy was nice to him when they crossed paths at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center. So it seems like Diddy’s ways and actions aren’t rubbing too many people the wrong way where he’s currently stationed. Just sayin’.
What do y’all think? Does it look like CNN altered the video of Diddy beating Cassie? Is Diddy’s team capping for their client’s sake? Let us know in the comments section below.

Diddy made another court appearance this week. The mogul has pleaded not guilty to two superseding indictments.
As per Vulture, Diddy appeared in federal court Friday (March 14) to hear some updates regarding his sex trafficking case. Additionally, he was formally accused of added charges related to his business practices. Prosecutors allege that he threatened employees with bodily harm if they did not assist in facilitating his supposed trafficking schemes.
They also say his employees would be subjected to hostile work conditions, including very long hours, which afforded them very little sleep. Even more damning are two victims that claim that they were forced to participate in the sex acts. “Victim 2” and “Victim 3” add that “on one occasion, Combs dangled a victim over an apartment balcony.” He plead not guilty to both indictments.
Diddy’s sex trafficking trial is set to start on May 5. According to CNN, his legal team has requested that jury selection commence that same day with opening statements to start May 12. He is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn; the same facility where former YouTube personality Taxstone was recently charged with smuggling contraband into.

A woman who named Sean “Diddy” Combs in a lawsuit last October has amended the filing, adding social media star Druski, NFL star Odell Beckham Jr., and singer Jaguar Wright over the weekend. Druski and Odell Beckham Jr. have responded to the claims, which allege that the aforementioned were involved in drugging, assaulting and raping the woman.
Ashley Parham filed the initial lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs back in October of 2024, updating the filing on Sunday (March 9) by adding Druksi, real name Drew Desbordes, Odell Beckham Jr., and Jaguar Wright, a vocal critic of the entertainment industry, to the lawsuit. Several outlets have issued reports on Parham’s lawsuit, with most writing that the filing levies serious allegations against the accused. Parham said that Druski covered himself in oil and jumped on the victim, treating her body as, quote, “a slip and slide.”
Druski took to social media to push back against Parham’s claims. In 2018, when the alleged incident took place, Desbordes stated that he was not a public figure at the time and was still living at home.
“This allegation is a fabricated lie,” began the posted statement. “I wasn’t a public figure in 2018 — I was broke living with my mom without any connections to the entertainment industry at the time of this allegation, so the inclusion of my name is truly outlandish.
Desbordes continued, “My heart breaks for actual victims of abuse, but I’m fully confident that the evidence will expose this falsehood and the individuals who are maliciously trying to game the legal system to peddle false narratives.”
Beckham replied under a post on X that Desbordes shared to say, “Boy I’ll tell u what. This world makes absolutely no sense. I am covered by God. He will prevail. I kno who am I , I kno who u are, keep ur head. That name will be cleared. Shxts stupid.”
After news of the allegations went wide, Druski’s name began trending on X, with many making comments about the comedian’s size and other low jabs. Others are also condemning Desbordes without all of the facts present, and those comments persisted through Sunday and continue today (March 10).
On X, we’ve gathered responses to the amended lawsuit below.

Last year, we learned that famous crypto scammer Sam Bankman-Fried was set to be locked up in the same jailhouse as “The Diddler” himself, Diddy. And as interesting as that was, what’s more intriguing is that it seems like the two public pariah’s have actually crossed paths behind bars, and Fried had nothing but love for him.
According to the Daily Mail UK, Sam Bankman-Fried sat down for an interview with right-wing media darling, Tucker Carlson (of course) from a remote room at the Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, and during the wide-ranging interview, which included his charges, prison life and evil Democrats (of course), Tucker bluntly asked him “Have you made friends there? Are you hanging with Diddy? I think he’s in there with you.”
While you’d think that fresh fish like Fried would have a hard time in jail given the nature of his blue collar crime and his overall appearance, he says that he’s been treated well by his fellow inmates and Diddy, in particular, has basically been living up to his moniker “Brother Love” from what he could tell.
Per Daily Mail UK:
‘He is.. he’s been kind. I’ve made some friends, it’s a weird environment. It’s a combination of a few other high-profile cases and a lot of alleged ex-gangsters.
‘I’ve only seen one piece of him, which is Diddy in prison. He’s been kind to people in the unit, he’s been kind to me.
‘It’s kind of a soul crushing place for the world in general and what we see are just the people that are around us on the inside rather than who we are on the outside.
‘Some of them I think are thinking well this is sort of an opportunity to meet people they wouldn’t otherwise get to meet,’ Bankman-Fried said.
‘It makes sense from their perspective, but boy is that not how I think about prison.’
Yeah, most of us are actually good on having to go to prison to get the opportunity to meet celebrities or people we wouldn’t normally interact with, but hey, that’s just us.
While we’re glad to hear that Diddy is in good spirits while behind bars, we just hope that Fried doesn’t end up getting shaken down for some “chon chon” at some point on some Blood In Blood Out sh*t. Just sayin’.
Luckily for him, Fried also added that “The fortunate thing, the place I’m in, I’m not in… I’m not in physical danger.” Let’s hope it stays that way.
What do y’all think about Sam Bankman-Fried’s description of Diddy and their current prison environment? Is he good, or do you think it’s only a matter of time before things go left? Let us know in the comments section below.

Diddy has yet another lawsuit that has come his way. Sara from Da Band has filed a $60 million dollar claim against him for harassment and more.
People is reporting that Sara Rivers, formerly known as Sara Stokes, who successfully landed a Bad Boy Entertainment record deal by competing on Making The Band, has filed a legal grievance against her former CEO. The lawsuit is 148 pages long and details how she alleged suffered under Diddy’s tyranny during her run as the group’s only vocalist.
In the complaint, she says that not only did Diddy harass her but also assaulted her. Rivers says she also had to work under inhumane conditions where Diddy frequently criticized her appearance and even made fun of her for having bulimia. She also infers that Diddy creeped her out on several occasions by talking to her so closely to “where he could kiss her and asks her in a low, sensual voice how she is doing, if she’s ok and if she needed anything at all.” The paperwork also states that Diddy was also guilty of “making physical threats to group members,” and claims that he “threatened to eat the face of one person and kill another.”
Diddy’s legal team have denied the claims in an exclusive statement to People. “This is yet another example of false claims being filed against Mr. Combs. No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone—man or woman, adult or minor,” the communication reads. “We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason. With the deadline for New York’s Gender-Motivated Violence Act expiring tomorrow, it’s clear that opportunists are rushing to file last-minute, meritless claims. Mr. Combs remains confident he will prevail in court.”
Diddy’s federal trial is set to commence in May.
